if i am to check whether var1 has any of the values '010','011','012',....'019' besides listing all thes values inside the brackets is there another more efficient way(shorter way)?
I know if var1 was numeric then i could simply have "if var1 in (10:19)" but would the be the shortcut for char variables.
Anyone please?
Use a data step to create a proc format control data set to define an INFORMAT that returns 1 for the values in the IN list (can be anything not just 010 to 019) and 0 otherwise.
